My Affirmations:

 

 I am already in possession of the strength required to triumph over doubt and fear and achieve excellence in every area of my life.

 

 I am daring enough to face any challenge.

 

I am a spark of the eternal source,

One with the Earth & Sky

One with the mind of the universe

One with all am I.

 

Gratitude List:

 

  I am grateful that mom is home from the hospital.

My Goals: _{for this week…}

 

  To help my mother get stronger and more independent every day.

  To make time every day for spiritual growth and study.

  To find time to write every day.

  To work on getting the kitchen cleaned and organized.

  To start taking care of myself.

 

Inspiration/Motivation:

 

  Not wanting to end up in my mother’s shoes.

  JoEmm, who keeps me grounded in reality.

  Saber, who offers not too much, but just enough, time for me to escape reality while also keeping me grounded.

Personal Challenge:

 

To be more patient with my kids this week and to stop telling them to “shut up.”

Daily, for 15 to 20 minutes, whenever I can grab some time for myself…

 

Creativity box:

 

  Ishi & the gang are on their way to Saika when they run into a dilemma.  (Ch. 5 of Ishi’s Story )

 

  Elsa & Jack Frost Fanfic idea…

 

Time wasted

For another’s pay

Waiting for it to be stated

That we can go on our way

But for more money they are tainted

To make us stay here all day…

(Just a little poem I wrote while we were in the ER again, today, because mom sprained her rotator cuff… )
